Community-Based Health and First Aid (CBHFA): Implementation Guide

The implementation guide will help you to: decide if CBHFA in action fits with the goals and programs of your National Society; launch, in a step-by-step process, a CBHFA in action program for your National Society and its branches; identify resources, both human and financial, that are needed to implement a CBHFA in action program.

The implementation guide is intended for you if: you are a leader and/or program manager in community-based health, disaster preparedness and response or community development for your National Red Cross or Red Crescent society at headquarter or branch level; you have heard about community-based health and first aid in action and are interested in implementing it with volunteers and communities
